FC sets and twisters: the basics of orbifold deconstruction
P. Bantay
We present a detailed account of the properties of twisters and their generalizations, FC sets, which are essential ingredients of the orbifold deconstruction procedure aimed at re…
Characters of Crossed Modules and Premodular Categories
P. Bantay
A general procedure is presented which associates to a finite crossed module a premodular category, generalizing the representation categories of a finite group and of its double,…
Mapping class group representations and Conformal Field Theory
P. Bantay
We discuss some properties of the tower of mapping class group representations associated to a Rational Conformal Field Theory. In particular, after reviewing the elementary proper…
The kernel of the modular representation and the Galois action in RCFT
P. Bantay
It is shown that for the modular representations associated to Rational Conformal Field Theories, the kernel is a congruence subgroup whose level equals the order of the Dehn-twist…
